GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I believe International High School has the potential to become a better school. Having more sports and arts can really elevate its status.

My experience at International High School was different but also what I experienced. I went from my cultural zone to another. I learned more into the Hispanic culture and language. I met more different people from my city and got to accomplish more things.

Generally, I would say my experience has been good. I haven't had any serious issues with the school. However, I do hope for the school culture to improve with time. As I am now in my last year of high school, I never quite felt "excited" or "happy" to be here. The students and certain teachers have really mad it hard for me to enjoy my time at school sometimes. I do not wish for any future students to feel the way I've felt and hope my underclassmen really strive to make the environment feel welcoming and exciting.
